Deloitte Consulting seeks to hire those with above-average communication skills who can effectively represent their brand when interacting with their clientele. A person with above-average communication skills will be able to adapt their communication style to those whose skills are less skilled. To demonstrate your skill level, communicate your answer as articulately as possible. Study Deloitte's website and integrate their keywords into your answers whenever possible. Refrain from using any speech crutch words such as "like," "um," and "you know," among others. You may also mention your ability to mirror, validate, and empathize, active listening, and non-defensive communication skills.

"I'm direct in my communication and typically try to communicate important information face to face first, then follow up with an email recapping the conversation and highlights. I always maintain a professional and positive tone and never raise my voice or curse in the workplace. I'm bilingual, so I can communicate with a diverse group of people. I am confident that my communication skills will work well here because I focus on simple solutions, easy-to-understand language, and a friendly tone."

"Having worked in customer service for the last ten years, I've sharpened my communication skills. I'm a good listener, often practicing active listening techniques in everyday conversations. For example, when a customer explains the type of item or product they are looking for, I repeat what I think I hear as their description to ensure I understand exactly what they are looking for. I always maintain a professional tone, whether in verbal conversations, email communication, or instant messenger applications at work."
